Ms. Edenfield described a good english teacher as, “Hardworking, dedicated, and caring.” Mrs. Riggs fits all of those qualities. “Mrs. Riggs is a great teacher. She works hard for her students and wants them to succeed.” You can tell in Mrs. Riggs teacher that she is very dedicated and caring towards her students.

As well as being dedicated and caring, Mrs. Riggs has an awesome sense of humor. “She tries to lighten up the class with her humor,” is what Brighton Platt said about her humor.  English can be a very boring class to kids sometimes, but it helps when the teacher has a good sense of humor.
